I and many others enjoyed both years !! The 3 Laps have been a huge highlight for me .. Personally hoping for more to come . but I understand and I know it's been a huge commitment by those involved. For me it has not gone unnoticed nor unappreciated...I am grateful to have been a part of both years and even happier to have great memories of good time with great people and enjoyed spending time with both new and old friends both years..

Maybe even for the near short term future its could be arranged as just a 1 day gathering @ NHMS to keep the "spirit " of the event alive with the informal Show & Shine , AutoX and 3 Lap event it could be a great foundation to keep the intent alive< i bet it would grow a much larger following over time... Seriously its only a hour plus or minus for most, others further away yes I understand but if held on a Saturday most could try to make a weekend of it or at the very least a overnight trip if they so chose . You can always head home on Sunday after a good breakfast and a quick view of the Beauty NH has to offer on your way..

Just thinking out loud...

Happy Spring 2013 !!

Hey Barry..I have said it numerous times, but we appreciate your support and enthusiasm.

The issue with doing a 1 day thing at NHMS is the cost...we need about 60 cars at $50 a car to even break even if we want to rent the front lot, insurance, pay the club to run the AutoX and have the ambulance service on site. With that said...I have an idea that we can toss around for this year possibly:

-Meet up at Weirs Beach some Saturday early afternoon this season-maybe at the Lobster Pound....have an informal cruise in, grab a bite to eat, shoot the bull etc. Then late afternoon cruise over to NHMS and do a 3 LAPS EVENT....!!!!!

Totally understand the whole money and numbers to make it happen.. You know me, it's all about having a good time with cool people and cool cars !! My enthusiasm only comes from the people that are involved and attend!!

Personally speaking I would still be in for the day long event at NHMS even it it cost me $60-$70 for a day long event including the 3 Laps !! I figure most car shows and NED events cost to enter anyways ,some events even cost per person and then add in the 3 laps, which are priceless to me and even $60-$70 seems like a bargain. I just think a single day event at the track could really grow a following to build around.

Alternatively you could certainly count me in for your suggestion on the informal gathering , bite to eat and a late afternoon 3 lap event !!! As long it doesn't fall between July 20 -Aug 3rd while I am away on vacation at the beach I'm be on board for that as well !

Either way its just about time to stretch out the legs in the Saleen, who knows it could be today !!

I can't speak for Bob or SmokinStangs, but I would love to do something this year even if it was just a day thing. Although I am kind of beat up from the last two years and finishing the 84, so I don't really have it in me to plan anything this year..!

If someone wants to try and put something together I would probably help out.

what's it take to set up a 3 lap event at the track? with an informal cruise? Cookout(at a different location)? I wouldn't mind doing it, if it wasn't too labor intensive.
